So Tired

Doesn't seem like we had a long weekend. Too many projects left too little free time.

It's Still Safe For Me To Dance.. Julie + Flash Mob

Just A Little Bit

We are encouraging the folks to take this weekend and all their concerns, one bite at a time.

Turbo Fuel

Sample pack of Dunkin Donuts coffee ingested. Read to rock.

I'm In A Hurry To Get Things Done...

I rush and rush until life's no fun.
All I really got to do is live and die.
I'm in a hurry and don't know why.

No time for left you.
On my way to better things.
I found myself some wings.
Distant roads are calling me.

Honesty. The Best Policy?

Blood is thicker than marriage. Family gatherings are just like Norman Rockwell paintings. Which one of these statements are true?

Getting in a screaming argument just for being honest. It's still better than being silent and resentful.

No Where To Run

Yesterday there was no where to run from the heat, humidity or insects. The old saying holds true, however, in MN you just need to wait 5 minutes for the weather to change. Now, back to pulling up sod.

Ya'll Come

I was so grateful to know that my in-law's were more excited than anxious to learn they were getting a house full of family next weekend. What a change the medication has made.

Blowing In The Wind

Lots of sound and fury in the middle of the night, but it signified nothing. Come on, rain!

Wait, Watch....Worry?

The results are in but nothing has changed. It wasn't a lab error.

Dracula would have loved the last two days. Both of us have had blood drawn.

Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

Worked hard in the garden. Taking mother-in-law to Dr. and helping hubby remain calm for court. Heading to Fargo for PSA testing and urologist visit. Fingers crossed.

Through The Glass Darkly

Time to wash windows. Keep it on the QT or the phone will ring with a request to do the folks. That will require help from hubby.

All The Leaves Are Brown

Oaks and basswood trees are bare. Worms and drought make a deadly combination.

Stage Fright

Some folks thrive on drama. I'm not one of them.

How Green Is Your Valley?

Nothing beats the smell of freshly cut grass.

Full Of Ideas

Long morning walks give Glenn ideas. Now, he thinks I should go back to cooking/cleaning for his folks. AARGH!!!

Thomas Keller's Chicken

Rinse bird. Dry bird. Truss bird. Salt bird. Roast bird. 1 hr. 450 degrees. Crisp bird.

Toss It

Will we ever eat three gallon sized bags of freezer coleslaw, that leftover chili with ice crystals clinging to the top or make gravy for just one from those drippings? The garbage people won't know what to do as we had more than one bag for the week.

Mid Week

Gearing up for my first day of work this week. Switching schedules sucks. Especially when Friday looks like a nice day to be home.

Now What

Phone calls from in-laws first thing in the morning. They have some ideas and need to stop over.

No Rain, Just Wind

Really need the moisture, not sucking air.

Yo Mama!

Don't know what lessons and memories you have of your Mother but mine are varied. The underlying message was in how she treated others. By example, she showed me that we all matter.

The Big Chill

Time to cover the lettuce, et al.

All Steamed Up

Nope.

Green Cleaning

I have wanted to try a steam mop to clean without chemicals and with Mother's Day sales, I brought one home today. Time to release my inner neat freak. (This might take awhile as she's been hiding a long time.)

Say, "Cinco"

Maybe shrimp veracruz?

Itchy, Scratchy

Here it comes. Today I saw the first poison ivy bumps.

Never Enough

Doesn't seem to matter how much we do for the folks, there is always something more. Time to talk about getting some daily care?

Put Me In Coach

Tried to talk Glenn through preparing supper but he gets easily distracted by sports, txt msgs.....

Take Them As Prescribed

It wasn't billed as a surprise birthday dinner. While Glenn was home grilling burgers, I found out that his mother had taken her anti-anxiety medication less than 4 hours apart, instead of 12.

Bring on the mango margaritas.
